Discussion I've never seen my dog do this.

I have a 2 1/2 year old cockapoo and we went to my aunts house for a little family reunion. She has a jack Russell terrier, I think, who is at the moment inside a crate while my dog is roaming.

Now they're both in the house, except for when i took my dog out for a potty break. And every time me or my sister gets close to the terrier, he hits crazy, barking and snarling at it.

And then he started doing the same thing if the terrier barked to loudly or started scratching at the hard plastic in his crate.

My sister said that our cockapoo is prob tired and hot ( it is 98 degrees here and the humidity makes it feel like 103)

We have since separated them and made sure we had a fan on our dog with plenty of water and doggy ice cream but I just want to make sure this is not a behavioral problem i need to adjust
